Daniel Brownie
Associate Director

Daniel joined us after moving across the world from New Zealand. He brings a wealth of experience working with the New Zealand public sector across a range of policy problems, and has a particular specialism in conducting research on environmental issues. With both agency and client-side experience, he has undertaken numerous studies for clients across New Zealand and now the UK governments, including the Treasury, the Ministry for Primary Industries, the Ministry for Environment and the Ministry for Social Development in NZ and Defra and DBT in the UK.
Some of his favourite projects have included exploring heuristics and behaviours impacting the effectiveness of recycling schemes in New Zealand, as well as research with Ofwat to improve service outcomes for water customers - which was shortlisted for the MRS Public Policy award in 2024.
Outside of work, he can be found travelling across Europe, searching for the best hiking spots and a great flat white.
